All Installation Instructions for Whirlpool Dishwasher IUD7070DS3

Bought lower rack, but discovered we didn't need it. Ordered the tine rack instead.

Our experience was amazing. The part itself simply needed to be replaced: dropped into the lower rack and it was done. The amazing part was the wonderful service that this site provided. We discovered our initial mistake, contacted the company, and received instructions for how to return it. Then we ordered the tine and it was sent immediately. Just received confirmation that the returned lower rack had been received, so the process is complete to our great satisfaction. This site really has it down for providing excellent customer service. They are terrific!! Thank you!

Very simple to repair The front track stops just slide into place, easy. When I looked for these parts this place was the least expensive and the quickest delivery I have ever had. Quick, efficient and friendly online staffing. Thank you, Deb

Old door gasket was leaking.

Watched YouTube first of course. Pulled off the old gasket, found the center of the new gasket and started installing the gasket from the very top and all the way down the sides. I made sure it was in tightly and smooth. No more leak, should have listened to my wife sooner!

Replacing upper rack rollers

Followed very simple instructions to easily install. The only tool needed was a flathead scredriver to pop off caps to remove old, broken rollers. New rollers simply click into place. Piease aren't cheap, but significantly less than a new dishwasher.

Upper dishrack roller assembly in slide rail broke, causing upper dishrack to sag

I used a flat blade screwdriver to compress one arm of the endcap of the slide rail to free it. I then slid up the locking slide of the old roller assembly freeing it from the upper basket,and put the new part in its place. I then put the roller back in the slide rail and replaced the endcap.

New part does not spin like original part that I replaced

It is easy to change out the part. It seems though the part does not freely spin like it should. Does not seem to be warped but does not free spin.
Maybe the new part does not match??

Stripped the fill valve when installing

I'm the maintenance supervisor at an apartment complex. While installing a new dishwasher for a tenant, I inadvertently cross-threaded the swivel connector to the fill valve. The valve was ruined and couldn't be repaired. I ordered a new valve (it was an OEM) and installed it. Simple switch out, plus the video from Parts Select showed I had done it right.

Dishwasher filled and emptied water, but would not spray water around during cycle.

Husband is wonderful, tipped dishwasher over on back, disconnected hoses, and drain motor (replaced that a couple years ago), popped out old part, popped in new part. Had me help him keep door open when working from the inside, and flip a plastic holder piece into place on outside. 15 minutes later, I had a dishwasher that worked like new again.

The gasket listed on your website is to thick. So after installation the door would close. I put the old gasket back in the door closed. However, the dishwasher still leaks soap after a cycle..

As stated above the repair did not go well because the gasket was too wide and the door would close. Suggest you talk with Whirlpool about the part they sold you for my model of dishwasher.
